Group Treatment - Response To Feedback

In response to the feedback that our group has received yesterday we assigned a task to each member of our group that would allow us to improve upon our concept. I looked into the slow motion and paint within our group’s music video while the two other member of my group looked into all other aspects of the idea. Listed below are the individual responses of our group’s members to the feedback.

At first I examined in what ways could the slow motion within our concept for a music video be extended upon. I personally feel that by constantly yet gradually changing the speed of the film the paint that will hit the dancer will appear more interesting. Furthermore through this the speed of the film could be matched to fit to the pace of the song and would therefore become more pleasing to watch. Subsequently I thought about the possible camera models that our group could rent to shoot the slow motion sequences. Through this research I came by the phantom camera models that are capable of shooting high quality footage at ultra-low frames rates. In addition to this I looked at possible rental companies and educational facilities that would aid us with understanding how to operate the phantom. Although I think that further research is required in this area as the prices for both rental of the phantom and learning how to operate the phantom that I have found are at the moment to elevated for our budget. Lastly I looked into paints and have found that water soluble paints are the most appropriate to be used with humans. The paints low viscosity and liquid like behavior allow us to easily clean it of and chuck it at our dancer during the shoot. Moreover I thought about extending the usage of paints throughout the video and personally felt that it would become too monotonous to utilize the paint in the same way throughout the video. In general I feel like that the research that I have conducted and some of the personal opinions that I will later on share with my group will allow us to further develop our music video.
